Solar Ear relies on sun to juice up

With so many young citizens these days listening to their iPods at very loud levels, it won't come as a surprise that many years from now, these same once-young folks will have a diminished sense of hearing, which is why the market for hearing aids has plenty of room to grow. How about being more eco-friendly in the future as well by starting today with the Solar Ear? that is the first solar-powered hearing aid rechargeable charger in the world, featuring a couple of rechargeable Ni-Mh AA batteries that take up to 8 hours of direct sunlight to charge. When fully juiced up, just place the hearing aid batteries inside and you're good to go. The unit’s batteries are touted to have a lifespan of 2 to 3 years, which is the equivalent of 300 charges.

Vizio Razor LED mobile TV range announced

[CES 2010] You know how consumer electronics manufacturers have to come up with something different and new each year to keep the masses satisfied? Well, with 3D being the last frontier (they say that every year concerning whatever new technology that was announced), could we see mobile 3D TVs being the next big thing? Vizio might be walking down that path, but in the meantime we will have to be satisfied with their Razor LED mobile TV range that features 800 x 480 resolution, as it pulls down ATSC broadcasts while displaying them in screen sizes of 7", 9" and 10". The 9" and 10" models, plus known as the VMB090 and VMB100 are plus able to receive NTSC broadcasts as well as the new mobile ATSC-MH broadcast. Other features comprise of an HDMI 1.4 input, composite inputs, a headphone jack and a USB port. Needless to say, its smaller sibling, the 7" (VMB070) Razor LED mobile TV does not feature USB and HDMI connectivity while being unable to receive ATSC-MH broadcasts, but that helps cut the fat to compose it appealing at a svelte 0.75" in thickness. You can pick up the VMB070, VMB090 and VMB100 later that year for $150, $200 and $230, respectively. Battery life is claimed to run for 3 hours on a singled-out charge - is that with or without sound, we wonder?
